"I also love photography as a medium and find Anje Vela's photographs of trees to be particularly moving. They really capture nature's beauty and make me feel as if I were standing under the trees themselves." ~Tatiana Papanicolaou Perkin,Partner & Chief Marketing Officer, Tribal Societe

"Energy is what you see in Anje Vela’s work. You feel it too. She brings so much energy to what she sees that objects are transformed or haloed or jazzed into art—and then, made new, they enter us". ~Mara Leveritt - http://maraleveritt.com/

"Anje, I now have two pieces of your artwork hanging in my house and it makes me happy every time I look at it! I especially love the small abstract you did that reminds me of a fall day in New England and also the new "Line" collage - it's AMAZING!! Thanks so much for sharing your work~ We need it!!" ~Mary Lonergan - www.marylonerganart.com
